United States: Population and Language Proficiency Data

The 2000 Census represented the most comprehensive look at the residents of the United States. Using this data, the U.S. English Foundation has assembled a in-depth series of tables on the population of each state, including language use, English proficiency, linguistic diversity and population growth. We hope that this information will be helpful to researchers, teachers, students and anyone interested in the composition of our diverse nation.
